To make this Pistachio Cardamom Creme Brulee, you will need the following ingredients per serving:

- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/4 cup shelled pistachios, finely chopped
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cardamom
- 3 egg yolks
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar

To begin, preheat your oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit. In a small saucepan, heat the heavy cream, pistachios, and cardamom over medium heat until it comes to a simmer. Remove from heat and let it steep for 10 minutes.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract until it becomes pale and thick. Slowly pour the cream mixture into the egg mixture, whisking constantly.
Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a measuring cup. Divide the mixture evenly among four ramekins. Place the ramekins in a baking dish and fill the dish with hot water until it reaches halfway up the sides of the ramekins.
Bake for 30-35 minutes or until the custard is set but still jiggles slightly in the center. Remove from the oven and let it cool to room temperature. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight.
When ready to serve, sprinkle a thin layer of brown sugar over the top of each custard. Use a kitchen torch to caramelize the sugar until it forms a crispy, golden-brown crust.
